Kirsten Kemp is a former professional ballet dancer, the founder of The Confident Dancer YouTube Channel (formerly known as TwinTalksBallet), an international speaker, and a High-Performance Coach for dancers, specializing in helping dancers optimize their performance and wellbeing through mindset work. 

Kirsten’s passion is to help dancers not only master the mental side of optimum performance, but also experience joy, mental wellbeing, and confidence in the process of making their dreams of dancing professionally a reality. 

Having grown up at a small recreational school and eventually worked her way through training at the Houston Ballet Academy, graduating from the University of Utah with a BFA in Ballet, and eventually dancing professionally with the Oklahoma City Ballet, she knows that this career path can be so joyful, but also so mentally and emotionally difficult at times.

  

Three years later, Kirsten is still deeply invested in providing this service to the ballet community and is grateful to have worked with countless dancers individually from all over the world and hundreds of dancers nationally and internationally through live group seminars for top dance schools, companies, and universities.
